SURFACE-SET DRILLERS:
WE’RE CHANGING THE GAME
Boart Longyear created the first mechanically set surface-set bit design in the 1930s with instant success in African gold and copper exploration.  Drillers relied solely on high quality surface-set technology until the advent of our impregnated diamond technology which revolutionized productivity for much of the industry. 

However, many surface-set drillers never had a reason to leave their trusted technology behind for impregnated diamond bits – until now.

 

SURFACE SET XP™ IS IDEAL FOR ALL SURFACE-SET DRILLERS
Some of the most successful surface-set drillers around spent more than a year testing Boart Longyear® Surface Set XP™ bits.  The drillers reported a minimum of 200% life over traditional surface-set bits with increased productivity.  Surface Set XP™ is impreg technology for surface-set drillers.
